I do give up on movies occasionally, to the bewilderment of most folks who know that. Eddie was most recently commenting on it.
Lord of the Flies is a handsome, mostly poorly acted (hey, they're kids) little movie. Not too particularly shocking these days, and I was never a fan of the book, but it's nicely done.
Boys Don't Cry is intriguing and wonderfully acted for an hour, and then that again for the second hour with the added weight of unbelievable tension.
Hell of a movie.
Can I change the name of the thread to "What are you watching on Netflix?" I've gone through three movies today, and this is a cool place to recommend instant-watches to other DIFers.
Anyway, today I watched Boys Don't Cry (holy fucking shit) and Lord of the Flies (about what I expected) for the first time. A third movie, Pizza, I watched because it had Ethan Embry in it, and I gave up on it about twenty minutes in.
I have not. I think it is fluffy.
A slim weekend, only two established DIF-folks were available for commentating, which gave us an opportunity to look at a movie we might not have otherwise looked at. And I'm really glad we did.
This might be a controversial one.
My argument has less to do with how recent a game is, and more to do with what it costs next to what I'd be willing to pay. Incidentally the new ones are too expensive. It's worth mentioning that I don't own DVDs and rarely see movies in the theaters.
Nah, not upset. Just confused by you gamer folk.
It has been recently brought to my attention that without video games, comic books, and Star Trek, I'm actually not a geek at all. Identity crisis. You know.
Yeah, yeah. I have literally nothing to stand on in this argument, I'm just sniping easy argument points from every direction and running from each post. 
Yeah, I'm not surprised games cost that much, people keep paying it. I'm just saying it's not likely to facilitate some incentive for me to ever play one.
Invid: My point being, old books and old games have something in common, in that they're cheaper now and not necessarily *any* less enjoyable than they were or compared to modern works.
I guess it's just an alignment-of-incentives problem for me. I don't care enough about games to fathom spending more than ten bucks on one, is probably the real bit of it.
...isn't that a valid thing to do?
The only ones on your list that I strongly dislike are Dune and At World's End, by the way.
Sir, that's the basic precept of my day to day life.
Yeah, it's gonna be me, Jake, and Cloe.
I WILL KILL YOU
King of Kong is the most likely choice, off the top of my head.
I would be really obliged if you'd write down what it says for the eleven steps, or at least summarize. That sounds interesting.
Ask Brian, he mentioned it on Apollo 13, saying that they lit the charges after the ship had broken up to be sure no huge pieces destroyed neighborhoods in Texas on the fall back down.
Also, welcome to the forum Keith!
At Comic Con, Joss was on a panel with JJ Abrams and they were talking about the nerdiest fan interactions they had ever had. JJ started, telling a story of how he used to write letters to FX guys, and the guy from Exorcist actually mailed him the tongue from the movie.
Joss followed, saying "well, I do have an Alien egg...but I had to bury the franchise in order to get it."
How can you stay mad at a guy like that, huh?
I had been shooting a thing for 36 of the preceding 48 hours prior to this commentary. I came downstairs in pajamas to find these three people on a couch, ready to go. And go we went.
Anyway, I'm pretty quiet on this one, so if this episode is better than most you know why.
Invid, "Overnight" is the best one I know, and it's usually on Netflix instant. Very hard watch.
